    Noice.

    I was there at his very first race meeting at Eastern Ck in '93, three years before his Touring Car debut.
    He was the young hot shot from Victoria who everyone was talking about and it was my second ever car race which just happened to be a round of the Touring Car Championship!

    I think he finished third and I got pipped on the line for fourth, but the entire time I couldn't work out how the hell he was able to maintain his car speed with the amount of bloody understeer he had through the hair pins! Supercars,..Under lights,....on now!

    Craig was a quiet kid who could barely string a sentence together back then, but he was always quick and seemed like a nice bloke, which is unusual in motorsport.

    How many times did he double stack over the years behind Whincup,and therefore lost a bucket full of championship points?

    I am pretty sure at Bathurst one year, he would have won if it wasn't for double stacking as well.
    Maybe a bit of "deja-vu" last night,...Whincup copped a double stack!
